The Sugarbush snow report for Apr 16 is a 16" base depth with 1 of 16 lifts open. Please note ski conditions and snowfall at Sugarbush are sourced directly from the ski resort and are only recorded during the official ski season's opening to closing dates.
1:52 PM: Spring skiing PERFECTION out there today. And another perfect day is in store for us tomorrow. Mostly sunny, with temps in the 40s up top, and reaching 55 down low. You know what that means...it's time to break out the jorts. Maybe the Hawaiian shirts. Maybe just a swimsuit to get your tan on! Whatever your spring skiing 'fit of choice, it's time to break it out!
Spring hours: And then there was Super Bravo. Supey B (how have I not thought of that?!) spins from 10:00 AM-5:00 PM. Note that there is NO lift access at Mount Ellen. This Sunday, 4/21, will be the last day of seven-days-a-week operation. After that, our plan is to be open for weekends right through Cinco de Mayo, but if we're seeing a mostly precipitation-free week of 4/22, we could open for some bonus days. As always, stay tuned here.
Construction on the NEW Heaven's Gate continues. Most recently, the first three lift towers were removed so we can get to work with construction up there. Heaven's Gate and Castlerock are closed, as well as all terrain skier's left of Lower Organgrinder including Domino, parts of Lower Jester, Heaven's Gate Traverse, and Gondolier. It is imperative that skiers and riders obey all signage marking the closed portions of these trails. They are closed because they are within an active construction site, so disobeying this signage puts you and our mountain operators at significant risk of accident or injury. Thank you for obeying posted signage and trail closures. "Closed" means CLOSED.
Racer's Edge (Racer's Rail?! Park Rat's Edge?!) has 5 terrain park features waitin' for ya for our last build of the season. Shoutout Bush Parks for all you do!
Season Passes are already on sale for next season, and they get you free skiing for the rest of this year too. For those not ready to commit to a pass, Quad Packs are back and one of the best deals in skiing! Book your stay at Sugarbush today-- you won't want to miss the sunny, slushy turns that April has to offer. Be sure to check out our events calendar to see what sweet events we've got coming up this Spring.
In the world of uphill travel, the entirety of Mt. Ellen is fair game for your uphill endeavors. The morning Lincoln Peak uphill route is now closed as our snow cats are out and about in the Spring Fling/Racer's Edge area at that time. BUT, you've got free range of Gate House, so grab those skins and get after it! And as always, be courteous of our mountain operators, who are still boppin' around at Ellen and on the Gate House side. Check out our website for our designated uphill travel routes and more information.
